After 26 hours of travel, we got to Wellington at 10 am.
The day we got in we went to the dress rehearsal for the show - it is held in a huge space and was packed with people taking advantage of the discounted tickets. The show runs two hours long without an intermission which they alert the audience to - so the bladder challenged can scoot out. Sue, Luci, Jeanie, Helen and I bought a bottle of champagne and some cups and settled into the second row in front.
